I think we should rename CrankNicolson to SemiImplicitQuasiNewton. I also wonder if we should rename ThetaMethod to TrapezoidalRule or something similar.

First part has already done. I've had a look through some literature and think ThetaMethod should remain as it is, I can't seem to find a name for u^(n+1) = u^n + dt(alpha*F^(n+1) + (1-alpha)*F^n), other than "General Two-Step Method"..

I think ImplicitMidpoint on the other hand could be called CrankNicholson or TrapeziodalMethod, as it would only be the implicit midpoint rule if the method is linear..
